cosmic rays may influence the amount of cloud cover through the formation of new aerosols
Clouds are classified and grouped into "Low", "Middle", and "High" clouds, refering to the altitudes they occur at. Low clouds include cumulus, nimbostratus, stratus, and stratocumulus; middle clouds include altocumulus and altostratus; and high clouds include cirrus, cirrocumulus, cumulonimbus and cirrostratus.

==Clouds and aerosols==
"Cosmic rays are charged particles that bombard the Earth's atmosphere from outer space. Studies suggest that [[cosmic rays]] may influence the amount of cloud cover through the formation of new [[aerosol]]s (tiny particles suspended in the air that seed cloud droplets)."
